Lake Orta is one of the scenic treasures of northern Italy, one of the smallest lakes in the Alps but also one of the most romantic and charming. Surrounded by forest-covered hills and small villages that line its shores, Lake Orta has its center in the picturesque village of Orta San Giulio. This area is the ideal tourist destination for those seeking quiet and relaxing places, but it also offers much to those who want to live there or spend their free time at home in total relaxation.
Some recently renovated historic villas fit perfectly into this atmosphere. Let's take a look at the most interesting ones.
We are in the territory south of Lake Orta, in the village of Gozzano. In this historic mansion where time seems to stand still. Immersed in a park of more than 7,000 square meters, the villa is arranged on three floors and divided into two parts, for an internal square footage of about 800 square meters. The main house features a very dramatic entrance to two living rooms, with a large bay window and frescoed ceilings. The upper floors have plenty of space for bedrooms. The second part of the villa is no less impressive; here, too, the ceilings are frescoed and an elegant wrought-iron staircase leads to the upper floors. Outside, the villa has a large manicured garden that provides complete privacy.
